Top a pre-bought pizza base with Moroccan-seasoned lamb for a tasty Thursday night dinner.

Ingredients (serves 2)

2/3 cup low-fat natural yoghurt
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tbs chopped mint
180g lamb backstrap, roughly chopped
1 1/2 tsp ras el hanout (see note) or Moroccan seasoning
1 large garlic clove, chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
26cm gluten-free pizza base (see note)
1 tbs pine nuts
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tbs chopped coriander

Method

Combine the yoghurt, 2 teaspoons lemon juice and mint in a bowl. Season with salt. Chill until required.

Preheat the oven to 220°C.

Place the chopped lamb, ras el hanout or Moroccan seasoning, garlic, red onion, sea salt and freshly ground pepper into a food processor and pulse until the mixture is coarsely minced.

Place the pizza base on a baking tray. Scatter the lamb mixture, pine nuts and tomato over the pizza base. Place in the oven and cook for 8-10 minutes until lamb is cooked through and tomatoes have softened. Remove from oven, scatter with the chopped coriander and drizzle over remaining lemon juice. Serve with the mint yoghurt.

Notes

Ras el hanout is from Middle Eastern food shops.

Gluten-free pizza bases are from supermarkets.

The Middle Eastern Food Kitchen (The home of delicious Middle Eastern Food Recipes) invites you to try Lebanese platter Recipe. Enjoy a collections of quick & easy Middle Eastern food recipes and learn how to make Lebanese platter.

Ingredients (serves 8)
 
4 Lebanese bread rounds
1 cup plain Greek-style yoghurt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Lamb kofta
800g lean lamb mince
1 large brown onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 egg
3/4 cup dried breadcrumbs
olive oil cooking spray
Tabouli
2 large tomatoes, finely chopped
1/2 cup burghul (cracked wheat)
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 cups chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup olive oil

Method

Make tabouli: Place tomato, burghul and lemon juice in a bowl. Stand for 30 minutes or until burghul has softened. Add parsley, mint, onion and oil. Toss to combine.

Meanwhile, make lamb kofta balls: Place lamb, onion, cumin, allspice, parsley, egg and breadcrumbs in a bowl. Using hands, roll tablespoons of mixture into balls. Spray a barbecue plate or chargrill with oil. Heat over medium-high heat. Cook kofta in batches, turning, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until cooked through.

Cook bread on barbecue for 2 minutes each side or until heated through. Tear into large pieces. Combine yoghurt and cumin in a bowl. Place bread and yoghurt mixture on a platter with kofta. Serve with tabouli.

Notes

Tip: You could serve baba ganoush, tahini dip or hommus with the bread instead of the yoghurt.
